This is one of those recipes that you can taste with your imagination! I haven't made it yet, but I will soon. I just know it is going to be really yummy with my next Italian dinner!

1 2pound loaf (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups sourdough starter
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons cooking oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 4 cups bread flour
  • 2/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced or pressed
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 egg white (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon water (optional)

Directions

  1. 1
    Starter must be proofed overnight or up to 12 hours before making bread.
  2. 2
    Add ingredients to bread machine in the order recommended by your machine's manufacturer.
  3. 3
    Select Dough cycle and start.
  4. 4
    When dough has finished kneading, but before it goes into the rise, remove from machine and shape into loaf or loaves.
  5. 5
    You could do standard loaves, or a free-form round or oval, or elongate.
  6. 6
    Let bread rise until double in bulk, covered.
  7. 7
    For a nice touch, lightly beat 1 egg white with 1 Tbsp water and brush top of loaf with this egg wash, and then sprinkle with fresh Parmesan, finely shredded.
  8. 8
    Bake at 375 degrees F for 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the size of loaves.
  9. 9
    NOTE: Roasted garlic could be used, in which case I would increase the amount because it is milder in flavor.

This is so good. I love the texture and the flavour. I'll definately be making this again and again. Bill took a bite, and just smiled. No words were needed here! Thanks Donna for another fantastic recipe.

    This bread is so incredibly aromatic that it's almost sinful. I used olive oil, fresh shredded parmesan cheese and about 5 small cloves of fresh garlic. The wet to dry ingredients ratio was a bit off for me. The dough was way too bulky and dry (my bread machine had trouble with it) so I had to add an additional 1/4 cup of starter and about a 1/4 cup of water to get a workable consistency. The dough then came out silky and smooth. I hand formed it into an elongated rustic loaf and we're using my garlic cheese spread as a topping for dinner tonight. I ate both heels already and the flavor is magnificent.

    This is one very tasty recipe! I would agree with some of the others that it needs more liquid, I used about a cup of milk in total, maybe even a bit more. I made a 1lb loaf and also a "tear and share" loaf in a round tin, using about 8 small balls of dough arranged in a circle. This was gorgeous with our Italian meal, and I would definitely do again. Well done Donna another flavoursome recipe.
